Why Move to Hitchin?
Located just under 2 miles away is the Westgate Shopping Centre, featuring High Street names such as River Island, Miss Selfridge, and Dorothy Perkins.
Stevenage continues to evolve. A 20-year programme worth £1bn is already in progress, aimed at major commercial and residential developments and the transformation of the existing town centre and surrounding area. This initiative aims to deliver new streets, facilities, and much more for residents and visitors alike.
A relatively large town, Stevenage is located in the county of Hertfordshire. It sits to the east of junctions 7 and 8 of the A1(M), between the Garden Cities of Letchworth and Welwyn. With London only around 30 miles away, it is a fantastic hub for commuters.
Stevenage holds a unique place in British social history as the first of the post-war New Towns, built in 1946. The population surged from roughly 7,000 to around 80,000, leading to the development of two distinct areas: the ‘Old Town’ and the ‘New Town’. Houses in both areas are in high demand.
The town is home to a diverse range of residents in terms of age and culture, making it suitable for both young professionals who commute into London and families attracted by its many good schools.
Outdoor spaces are plentiful, and there are ample entertainment options, including a variety of supermarkets, sports facilities, and places to eat and drink.
